Your knowledge of the English Civil War/Revolution is execrable Larry Send a noteboard - 24/10/2011 05:04:53 AM
James VI/I died in 1625. His son, Charles I, was the one that was executed in 1649 after nearly seven years of civil war due to his attempt abrogation of centuries of English laws and royal charters that defined Parliament's role in governance. It wasn't until 1660 that his elder son, Charles II, was brought back to be king and he died peacefully, worn out after decades of his infamous debaucheries, in 1685. It was the younger brother, James II, who was kicked out.

Might help to have this information correctly identified before you attempt to argue constitutional law here ;)
